Default help..upper triple tree question!

Is there an aftermarket upper tree that has larger diameter mounting holes so the handlebars can be rubber mounted like they were before '04?

perhaps a dumb question but Can the existing tree on an '15 Iron be drilled out for this? Would an older tree work?

Im coming off of neck surgery and Ive had nerve issues in my hands/fingers and the handlebar vibration obviously doesn't help. I plan to try Vibranators very soon but was just curious if rubber mount was an option.

thank you...Jason

On older tree will work but you'll need a 1/8" spacer/washer between the top bearing seal & tree because of a design difference.

Or you can try rubber mounted risers like what they sell for springers.
